South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services agents said Raymond Roberson, 47, turned himself in to authorities Tuesday night.

“When Raymond was questioned this morning he informed the supervisor that the media attention encouraged him to make the decision to stop running. He knew of the TV media coverage and contacts with family and friends in the Oconee County area," Greg Stewart Greenville County's agent in charge in the Department of South Carolina Department of Probation, Pardon and Parole Services.

Authorities said Roberson cut off his GPS monitoring device on Sept. 3 at a home on Natick Drive in Piedmont.

They said he put a letter in the victim’s mailbox on Old McElhaney Road on the same day, saying that he was going to kill her and the child.

Agents said they believed that the victim and child were in imminent danger.

They said Roberson violated a restraining order and has an extensive criminal record, including a conviction for criminal domestic violence of a high and aggravated nature.
